Episode Description
Caretaking others - sounds good right? We are supposed to be kind to others when they fall… right? But what is the difference between Caretaking and Kindness? There is a huge difference. While it can be good that we are taking care of the ones we love, it can create another kind of crisis. Did you know that the stress of caregiving can take actually take a toll on emotional and mental health? The mental, emotional, and physical demands of caring for others can be debilitating. Depression, stress, and frustration are just a few of the bi-products of caretaking. Join us for this important episode as Sandra and her colleague Maite Gomez talk about the pitfalls of caretaking and how to keep on being kind without sliding down the dangerous slippery slopes of enabling someone to stay unwell by caretaking.
